    I wouldn't move on Oscar yet. There's still the FA Cup and CL games for chelsea to go.

    Ye I'd wait till after cl I'd expect mourinho will play fab over oscar in an advanced role against psg. Oscar should then start at home to burnley.

    Anyone considering going without for GW 27 (looking at a 9 player team myself) so that I've 5 DGW players the following week (Chelsea DGW pending) with the chance to bring in another Spurs player that week to have 6 DGW players (from 2 good option teams) without having to take a points hit.

    Yes! I'll probably field "only" 10 players and maintain terry, hazard, eriksen, kane.

    For me it is looking like 9 and I'll have Costa, Terry, Hazard, Kane and Rose with Eriksen to be added for the DGW.

    I mean I could go without Costa, in doing so keeping Defoe which would make 10 players, but Costa vs Burnley (who I'd probably captain), plus a plum 6 DGW players with no points hit is extremely attractive to me right now.

    Your thoughts on a postcard please, people.

    I currently only have hazard and Kane but if Chelsea have a double I could bring in 2 of their players this week. What your considering makes sense to me once you have a couple of the best gw 27 captain options. People fielding 11 in gw 27 will have a few bench fodder players playing not likely to score highly and will then have to take hits to get to your situation for gw 28.

    Exactly. I'll have Aguero and Sanchez, injuries permitting. Those are good captain options in any week usually.

    Sherwood has been named as Villa boss.

    Time to get rid of Hutton for anyone that has him so. Attacking points he might get but little chance of clean sheets.

    Ya I have him myself and was planning on playing him in GW27 so will probably hang on to him until after that.

    Toying with taking a punt on Milner for the next couple of games, I know gametime is a risk but he's making a good case for inclusion ahead of Navas, and tends to score from the bench too lately.

    I was very tempted to get him in for Johnson before the Hull game but I (correctly as it happens) didn't think he was going to start. So I went for Puncheon instead. :(

    Is it not too risky though? I mean, as you said, he's not guaranteed a start. In addition his GW27 fixture is not ideal (Liverpool away).
    Or do you want to save cash for upgrading somewhere else? Siggy's back from suspension. He may become again a nice mid-priced midfield alternative. Burnley away for GW27 doesn't sound bad too (though his away record is far from great).

    It would only be for 26 & 27 before he'd be out for a spurs mid. Have just enough to get him and Studge for puncheon and Pelle. Toying with it, but possibly chasing the points I missed not going for him two weeks ago. His contract wrangle could go either way regarding his gametime, he's playing very well though and I'd expect him to get at least one start out of those two.

    True though that Liverpool are much tighter defensively that they were earlier in the season.

    Would Yaya back and Bony arriving not concern you? Throw Barca into the mix with champions league too. Also with all the blanks and DGWs upcoming are transfers not more precious?

    I remember when I used to be a renegade who didn't play by no rules :)

    Where will he play with Bony signed and Yaya and Nasri now available. I'd see a 442
    Nasri Yaya Fern silva
    Aguero bony
    The game against barca is probably the most likely game for him to start in.

    How could the fans turn against Big Sam with West Ham being in 8th place? When has this team ever had such a good record?

    It's more about certain decisions than anything.

    - Letting Zarate go out on loan
    - Continuing to play Kevin Nolan

    Yeah he should have wildcarded. Id say Zarate's value has plummeted since he brought him in too.

    I think alot of West Ham supporters see Andy Carroll as a huge waste of money too (well, the two I know do anyway!).

    At 6.6 I think he is a bargain when fit.

    How often is he "fit" though? Therein lies the issue.

    You can just transfer him out then though when he gets injured. He was a decent option over Xmas anyway
